Summary
CVE-2024-41445 is a recently disclosed vulnerability affecting version 2.1 of the MDF library (mdflib). The issue lies in the way mdf4 files are parsed using the ReadData function. An attacker can craft a malicious mdf4 file to induce a heap-based buffer overread, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution or denial of service. Systems relying on this library for MDF file processing are at risk and should be updated to a patched version as soon as possible.
